The British Business Group Vietnam Corporate Charity Football Tournament was launched in September 2013 as part of the UK Business Week in Vietnam celebrations. Over the past three years, the vibrant event has attracted the participation of over 30 businesses, raising VND400 million to support charity projects across Vietnam.
To end a successful year with the official visit of British Prime Minister David Cameron to Vietnam on the occasion of the 5th anniversary of the signing of the bilateral Strategic Partnership in 2015, and the 20th anniversary of BBGV being established as the first international Chamber of Commerce licensed to operate in Vietnam, the BBGV Member Companies Friendly Football Tournament to raise funds for charity will be held on Saturday, January 9, 2016. This year, 16 teams participated, including member companies and partners such as: British University Vietnam, British International School, Vietnam Airlines, PwC Vietnam, Jardines, HongKong Land, Coats Phong Phu, Luala Milano, Savills, Grant Thornton, Hilton, Intercontinental Hanoi Westlake, B. Braun, US Alumni and especially a team from the British Embassy with the participation of Ambassador Giles Lever. Players participating in this year's tournament all have the chance to win in a lucky draw two round-trip business class tickets to any destination in Southeast Asia on flights operated by Vietnam Airlines.
The British Business Group Vietnam Member Companies Friendly Football Tournament promises to be a vibrant and fun event. It will bring teams together, while demonstrating and celebrating core business values – “building team spirit” through fun activities, sporting events, meeting new partners and friends, celebrating new members and achievements, and raising much-needed funds for registered charities across Vietnam.
